Define Qualities
Explanation
Use this activity to define different qualities or
variations of a product to be produced. When you record a Production Change or
Completed Production event you are required to specify a product quality. When a
Scrapping event is reported the quality is retrieved by means of the connected
Completed Production event. When a Stop event is reported the quality is
retrieved automatically from the last available Production Change event.
Once one or more qualities are defined for a product,
you can define production rate goals for each product and quality combination in
the production unit. For more information, refer the online help file:
Define Production Rates.
